The Muslim woman who has been exposed as an anti-Jew activist?

Where’s her yellow badge originate?

The practice of wearing special markings in order to distinguish Muslims from non-Muslims (Dhimmis) in Muslim-dominated countries seems to have been introduced by Umayyad Caliph Umar II in early 8th century.The practice was reissued and reinforced by Caliph Al-Mutawakkil (847–61), subsequently remaining in force for centuries.[2][3] A genizah document from 1121 gives the following description of decrees issued in Baghdad:

Two badges [are to be displayed], one on the headgear and one on the neck. Furthermore, each non-Muslim must hang round his neck a piece of lead with the word Dhimmi on it. He also has to wear a belt round his waist. The women have to wear one red and one black shoe and have a small bell on their necks or shoes.[4]

So why was the Muslim woman wearing the badge? Was it to say that her faith was being attacked as much as the Jews were attacked and had to wear these badges?

If it is yes, this woman is delusional. The Jews did no wrong and were targeted because of an ideology that wanted a pure Aryan race (Herrenvolk), based upon ignorant applications of Darwinian theory. It was from Social Darwinism that combined nationalism with anti-semitism. In the case of Islam, there is the radical element that has a superior race prejudice against all non-Muslims. It is just as radical and just as racist as the Nazi Party who wanted to rid the Aryan race of the unpleasant “hereditary smell” of the Jews. If you wanted to be accurate, it is all the people in the hall who should have worn the yellow badge. We are the discriminated ones and we are the “smell” they want to eliminate from the earth.
